Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) Loans

Both Maryland and Washington DC have passed PACE enabling legislation and new PACE programs are well underway in the District, as well as a growing number of Maryland Counties.

What is PACE?

Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) programs are designed to assist qualifying commercial and non-profit properties with financing energy improvements.  The PACE loan from a private lender is paid back through annual surcharges on the property tax bill.  This loan stays with the property and subsequent owner continues to pay the surcharge until the loan is fully paid.  What is so good about PACE for a business owner or nonprofit?

  • No out of pocket costs
  • Typically cash flow positive throughout the loan term
  • Off balance sheet financing
  • No personal guarantees required
  • Maintain all tax benefits and incentives (where applicable)
  • Allows inclusion of multiple energy efficiency projects and solar; sometimes can include a roof replacement

Until now, only Leases, Power Purchase agreements, and traditional commercial loans were available for financing solar for small businesses.  PACE has cracked the code.

Solar Renewable Energy Credits

SRECS = Solar Renewable Energy Credits. These are tradable credits that represent all the clean energy benefits of the electricity or thermal energy generated from a solar system. Each time a solar system generates 1,000 kWh (1MWh) of electricity (or thermal equivalent), an SREC is issued which can then be sold or traded. This SREC transaction is completely independant of the $ savings generated by using solar power instead of traditional power.
